Disney Open Dedicated Nintendo Games Studio

Animation giant Disney is set to open a new games development studio specifically for Wii and DS.

Whilst Disney aren't particularly well known for making "great" games, obviously the Wii's popularity amoung its developers is growing, so much so that Disney want to see more Wii titles in its catalog.

"Disney’s gaming division, Buena Vista Game, has announced that it’s opening a new studio dedicated to developing games designed for Nintendo’s DS handheld and Wii console.

It already has a number of titles in development for the Nintendo platforms, but the company is keen to create more, perhaps anticipating that many Wii buyers will be atypical gamers, perhaps families with young children who fit the Disney demographic."

According to Pocket-Lint the first two games for the Wii will be Chicken Little: Ace in Action, and Meet the Robinsons.
